Hmm, not the answers I was expecting.

DrStrange, your 4 points seem to be exactly what Jones addresses on p80 of Winning Low-Limit Hold'em and Miller covers on p(I forget and it's not in front of me) in GSiH.

DrStrange wrote: With no reads on the villains and playing $0.25/$0.50 you need to make adjustments. Rational villains might fold facing a cold 2-bet on the flop, but some of these villains might not be rational.
Then isn't that the point of making them cold call? If they're going to pay against odds to chase, then they're making the mistake I want them to make, no? By leading out, everyone else now has at least 6.5:1 on their flop calls.

Here's the rest of the hand (unformatted):
Hero checks, UTG+1 checks, MP checks, CO bets 0.50, 1 fold, Hero raises $1
UTG+1 folds (one down!)
MP calls $1 (but not the other)
CO raises $1 (and here is more action!)
Hero calls $0.50 (simply for the pot size... CO could have AXh... lets see if the draw comes in)
MP calls $0.50
Dealing Turn [7h Jh 4d] 6h (it does)
Hero checks
MP checks
CO bets $1
Hero folds
MP calls $1
Dealing River [7h Jh 4d 6h] 3h
MPP checks
CO checks (guess he doesn't have Ah)
MP shows 8s 9s
CO shows Jd Jc
Winner is CO $8.60

Say, I just noticed that the hand converter called this a .25/.50 game. It was really a .50/$1 game, if that matters.
